Just a 'B'??? (13/20)WTF!!! (1 Viewer)

[Phoenix Fury]

Just so you all know I care a lot about school.

I was just saying I don't care about AH as it was my 7th choice and will have no impact whatsoever on my future(as far as I can tell), despit the fact it's quite fun and relaxing campared to demanding classes. That and the fact the teacher is awsome.

A B isn't that bad - depending on the hardest of the test/standards of marking a B in an extension course is great.

 

[Phoenix Fury]

Yeah, the 'B' isn't what i'm worried about, it's the 13/20 part.

 

[kaz1]

the mark does not really matter it is the rank that is important

 

[Continuum]

Yeah, but 13/20 would still make you feel abit disappointed - even if you get a good rank with it. On the other hand, I thought that B was in the 15-17 range?

Talk to your teachers. Don't bother complaining on boredofstudies, because us students won't wave a magic wand, creep into your room like imaginary pixies and change your mark to full marks.

In order to attempt to solve some misunderstandings -

A = 85-100%

B = 65-84%

C = 45-64%

D = 25-44%

E = 0-24%

i think

it can obviously change from school to school and marking critera can change this alot but this is the standard mark/grade correlation...

so 13/20 = 65% = B

Okay, I guess this pretty much sums it up.

Prelim, who cares.

You know whats bad, my English Teacher last year, gave me a B and put me in SECOND 25% QUARTILE in my report. That is like ranked 60 and below. And thats just impossible, because last semester I got an A, TOP 25%. I was curious went and asked this year about why she gave me 2ND 25%, she said "OMG _____, I gave you that? No I didnt! How could I have given you that? Let me check, Wait, you're a Nguyen right? ohh..I think I may have mixed you up with another Nguyen. I'm so sorry, you're reallyy good in english blah blah blha, ..."
